👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Tips Before You Go:

Call ahead or check online to confirm current offers and age restrictions. Promotions may vary by location or be dine-in only.
Arrive early—some places get busy during family dinner rush!
Don’t forget to tip your server—the discount applies to the kids’ meals, not the service.
